A look at the GOP newcomers looking to unseat councilmembers By Victoria Espinoza victoria@tbrnewspapers.com After an intense shake-up in the Smithtown Republican party last week, four GOP candidates for town council seats are now left standing. Newcomers Bob Doyle and Tom Lohmann, who both have no prior experience running for public office, are hoping to unseat incumbents Tom McCarthy and Lynne Nowick. Doyle, a Nesconset resident, is a Vietnam Army veteran and retired Suffolk County homicide detective. He said he wants to bring strong leadership back to the town board. “There is not an advancing agenda right now that will help this town to grow,” Doyle said in a phone interview. “I am looking to be that energy. I believe I can build a consensus and look beyond a political agenda.” Doyle has a more than 35-year career in law enforcement, where he wore many hats and oversaw several different departments and programs. He said he wants to bring the same guidance he brought to the police department, where he helped bring many MS-13 gang members to justice, as well as other bank and commercial robbers.

Bob Doyle, left, and tom Lohmann are hoping to win their first public office positions. “I created the Suffolk County liaison with the FBI that would become the first Suffolk County gang task force,” Doyle said. “It was extremely successful, and made for a tremendous amount of arrests that involved both gang members and seizing of drugs.”
After Doyle left the force in 2010 he started a consulting firm that works with police departments across New York State, introducing them to new technology devices to assist law enforcement, as well as training them in how to use it. The retired officer is also a former Eagle
Scout, and president of the Country Pointe Homeowners Association for about nine years. He said he’s proud of the work the board has done to protect and preserve clean groundwater for the residents.

COUNTY Suozzi wants to give free mental health services to veterans BY VICTORIA ESPINOZA VICTORIA@TBRNEWSPAPERS.COM U.S. Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-Glen Cove) is hoping to protect those who protect us. Last month he introduced a new bill in Congress that pledges free mental health resources to those who have served in the military. When presenting the bill, Suozzi stressed how difficult it is to identify and diagnose a mental illness in a veteran, as compared to physical injuries. “It’s obvious when someone loses a limb or is injured tragically in war to identify that their injury is service-related,” he said. “But for veterans who go home at night and are alone by themselves suffering from a mental illness, too many are suffering and it’s not easy to identify these problems and demonstrate their injury is service-related.” Suozzi said the mental health services

U.S. Rep. Suozzi introduces his bill to a crowd of veterans last month. would be made available through Veterans Affairs medical facilities such as the Northport VA and other veteran centers. The legislation would ensure any veteran, regard-
less of their discharge status, would receive “the mental health care they need.” Under the bill, reservists would also be eligible for the services. Suozzi’s office did not return
requests for comment on where the funds would come from for the program and the specifics of how the law would be executed in VA centers. “This is a real, serious epidemic we’re facing in our country,” Suozzi said in a statement. “Our veterans find that they don’t have any hope and many are committing suicide. We have an obligation to try and help these veterans that are facing this struggle. Democrats and Republicans must work together to address this issue.” While the Northport VA said they couldn’t comment on current legislation, they said they “appreciated” Suozzi’s dedication to veterans’ issues. The Northport center currently offers several resources for mental health issues, including a psychiatrist in the emergency room 24/7, many substance abuse treatment programs and a resident post-traumatic stress disorder

mental health Continued from page A5 recovery and treatment program. An aspect of the bill also includes mental health services for veterans with otherthan-honorable administrative discharges. U.S. Secretary of Veterans Affairs David Shulkin said earlier this year he intends to expand provisions for urgent mental health care needs to former service members with other-than-honorable administrative discharges. According to the VA, this would be the first time a VA secretary has implemented an initiative specifically focused on expanding access to assist former service members who are in mental health distress and may be at risk of suicide or other adverse behaviors. “The president and I have made it clear that suicide prevention is one of our top priorities,” Shulkin said in a statement. “We know the rate of death by suicide among veterans who do not use VA care is increasing at a greater rate than veterans who use VA care. This is a national emer-
gency that requires bold action. When we say even one veteran suicide is one too many, we mean it.” Shulkin said there are more than 500,000 former service members who are discharged other-than-honorably, and roughly 20 veterans per day die from suicide, with only six using VA services on average. A Government Accountability Office study showed 60 percent of troops that have been discharged for misconduct in recent years suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder or some other type of brain injury. Suozzi cited the incident last month when a Navy veteran crashed his car into pedestrians in Times Square, killing one person and injuring many more. Suozzi said he reportedly was dishonorably discharged after exhibiting dangerous and unstable behavior. “It’s simply too difficult for many veterans in this country to receive mental health counseling and we need to make it available for every single veteran in this country,” Suozzi said.

Suffolk selected for study to gather medical data for CDC By Alex Petroski Alex@tBrnewsPAPers.com Suffolk County residents will play an important role in improving the health of their fellow Americans in 2017. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention selected Suffolk as one of 15 counties nationwide to participate in its annual National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, a data collection study that is used to draw conclusions about the health and diets of people in the United States. The CDC is the nation’s health protection agency, conducting research in the hopes of preventing the spread of diseases and tracking their prevalence. The NHANES is a 55-year-old program that tracks health and diet trends in the U.S. by selecting counties based on demographics with the goal of accumulating a set of data representative of the entire population of the country. This is the second time Suffolk was observed as part of the survey since the turn of the century, according to study manager Jacque DeMatteis. The CDC arrived April 29 at Stony Brook University’s Research and Development Park in three mobile trailers outfitted with dozens of pieces of medical equipment, researchers and physicians to begin assessments on the approximately 600 Suffolk residents selected. “It’s important because right now we’ve
got all of these miracles happening with cancer research and things like that, without information that people help us to provide — a lot of it comes from here — [researchers] don’t have anything to draw on,” DeMatteis said of the purpose of the yearly survey during a tour of the CDC mobile facility May 19. Charles Rothwell, director of the National Center for Health Statistics, reiterated the importance of accumulating the data in a statement. “The survey is a unique resource for health information, and without it we would lack important knowledge about major health conditions,” he said. “The comprehensive data collected by NHANES has a far-reaching and significant impact on everything from the quality of the air we breathe, to the vaccinations you get from your doctor, to the emergence of low-fat and ‘light’ foods on the shelves of your grocery store.” The process for selecting participants within a county begins with about 1,500 addresses, and interviewers scour the area in the hopes of securing about 600 willing participants who also provide a representative sample of age ranges, genders, races and ethnicities and degrees of health. The selected participants who are willing to be examined then visit the mobile facility to be subjected to a variety of tests of blood pressure, diet, dental/oral health, vision and hearing, bone density, liver function and much more using

residents participate in a cDc survey to accumulate data on health and diets of Americans. high-tech scans not often available through traditional physicians. DeMatteis made the case for selected participants making the trip to be studied despite some minor possible inconveniences. “For the people who participate, they get their results back,” she said. “If anything abnormal comes up they’re contacted immediately. Our national health officer will contact them and we’ve had a couple of situations where it was kind of life-threatening situations and they were totally unaware of it.” Participating adults also receive $125, reimbursement for travel expenses and the opportunity to receive credit for five hours of com-
munity service. Newborns and up are required for data collection, though specific scans and tests are not done uniformly across age groups. “A lot of people do it for the exams, and in the past even more people had no means to get access to health care,” DeMatteis said. No medical procedures are offered at the site, though on occasion physicians are forced to recommend immediate treatment if anything concerning appears as a result of a test. Patients are also allowed to pick and choose which tests they’d like to participate in of the ones they qualify for. The CDC urges anyone selected to participate in the survey.

Congressman Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) announced May 23 that his bipartisan legislation, H.R. 1005, to help severely disabled veterans across the country, by expanding access to the Adult Day Health Care program for disabled veterans who need extra assistance, passed the House of Representatives unanimously. “This is an important piece of legislation that provides a valuable and necessary service to our nation’s veterans, and I am pleased to announce that this bill passed the House of Representatives today,” Zeldin said in a statement. “By expanding access to Adult Day Health Care programs, we can ensure that all veterans receive the best and most efficient outpatient services that provide each veteran with the assistance and special attention they need, while still allowing them to maintain their independence. With House passage of this bill, we are now one step closer to expanding care for disabled veterans on Long Island and across our country, allowing each veteran to lead a much more fulfilling life, while keeping families together and strong. Expanding Adult Day Health Care for our disabled veterans is a top priority. I encourage the Senate to act quickly and pass this commonsense bill.” According to Zeldin’s office, the Adult Day Health Care program is currently available to help disabled veterans and can be offered at state veterans homes across the United States. However, the expense of the program many times is one that veterans or families take on, which in turn significantly limits the number of veterans who can enroll. The program is also only currently offered at three facilities in the United States, including the Long Island State Veterans Home at Stony Brook University. Zeldin’s bill would define the Adult Day Health Care program as a reimbursable treatment option through the Department of Veterans Affairs, which would guarantee that all

“I am not looking for a career here — I’ve already had a full career and then some — I am looking to put my skills to use,” Doyle said. “I believe we’ve stagnated as a town.” He said he wants to focus on the failing business districts in the different hamlets of Smithtown, as well as promoting the development of more sewer systems to help make it possible for more businesses and residential areas to lay down roots in Smithtown. He also said he wants to work on improving failing infrastructure, and communication between the town board and the school board.

severely disabled veterans, those who are 70 percent or more service connected disabled, are able to access Adult Day Health Care at no cost to them. The bill would also help expand the program, which could be offered at any of the 153 state veterans homes across the country, Zeldin’s statement said. Fred Sganga, director of the Long Island State Veterans Home, expressed gratitude for the legislation being passed. “We are grateful to Congressman Lee Zeldin for his ongoing efforts to care for veterans both locally and nationally,” Sganga said in a statement. “H.R. 1005 will enable veterans to receive the essential services they deserve, while still being able to reside in their own homes. This legislation helps to restore a veteran’s freedom to remain an active member of their community even after succumbing to the perils of military service. Congressman Zeldin never forgets the sacrifice of brave women and men who donned the uniform to protect the freedoms we all enjoy today.” — Rita J. Egan now works as an investigator for the Suffolk County District Attorney’s Insurance Crimes Bureau and part-time as a Head of the Harbor police officer. “I’d like to thank Bill Ellis and the Republican committee for having the trust in me to do the job and do the job right,” Lohmann said after receiving the nomination at the Smithtown Republican convention last week. “I’ve seen this town grow and I’ve seen change to this town in the last 10, 15 years that I personally haven’t been happy with. My venture into politics hasn’t come without a lot of soul searching. I’ve never backed away from a fight in my life, and I’m running because I think it is the right thing to do.” According to Lohmann’s media relations team, he intends to resign from his current career if elected, and would treat the job as a full-time position. He wants to focus on uniting law enforcement and local coalitions to end the growing gang violence and substance abuse problems that are affecting towns across the North Shore, as well as repair parks, green spaces and infrastructure in the town.

Gov. Cuomo among creators of new climate alliance Local officials weigh in on President Trump’s decision to withdraw from Paris Agreement By Alex Petroski alex@tbrnewspapers.com U.S. President Donald Trump’s (R) decision to withdraw from the Paris Agreement, a global effort to combat the threat of climate change, elicited strong responses from around Page A26 the world. One of the more notable reactions came from New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D), who along with the governors of California and Washington State established the United States Climate Alliance. The coalition will convene the three states, and others that have come out in support of the initiative, in committing to uphold the parameters of the Paris Agreement despite Trump’s June 1 announcement. As of June 5 the alliance included 13 members — 12 states and Puerto Rico. “The White House’s reckless decision to withdraw from the Paris climate agreement has devastating repercussions not only for the United States, but for our planet,” Cuomo said in a statement. “New York State is committed to meeting the standards set forth in the Paris accord regardless of Washington’s irresponsible actions. We will not ignore the science and reality of climate change, which is why I am also signing an executive order confirming New York’s leadership role in protecting our citizens, our environment and our planet.” The Paris Agreement, which officially took effect in November 2016, aimed to strengthen the response to climate change globally by keeping temperature rise below 2 degrees Celsius during the current century and also strengthen countries’ ability to deal with the effects of climate change. The U.S. is now one of only three nations on the planet not included in the agreement. According to Cuomo, the United States

Andrew Cuomo, center, helped to establish the United states Climate Alliance in the aftermath of President Donald trump’s withdrawal from the Paris Agreement. lawmakers signed a bill protecting the long island sound last year; bottom right, N.y. state sen. schumer was among the most forceful opponents of trump’s decision; bottom left, Cuomo’s executive order. Climate Alliance will seek to reduce emissions by 26 to 28 percent from 2005 levels and meet or exceed the targets of the federal Clean Power Plan, each of which were self-imposed U.S. goals of the Paris Agreement. The Clean Power Plan was established in 2015 to establish state-by-state targets for carbon emission reductions. Trump signed an executive order early on in his administration placing a hold on the plan and pledging a review. Cuomo also announced New York State will be investing $1.65 billion in renewable energy and energy efficiency in the aftermath of Trump’s decision. In addition he said he aims to create 40,000 clean energy jobs by 2020. Republican New York State Sens. John Flanagan (R-East Northport) and Ken LaValle (R-Port Jefferson) did not respond to requests for comment through spokespersons. Local officials from across the political
spectrum spoke out about Trump’s decision in the aftermath of the announcement. “We live on an island and have already begun to see some of the effects of our rising seas,” Brookhaven Supervisor Ed Romaine (R) said in a statement. “To protect Brookhaven for our children and generations to come it is our responsibility to take action now. The president’s announcement today regarding the Paris climate accord is disappointing. On behalf of our residents, I will continue to fight to protect our environment.” Democrats including 3rd Congressional District U.S. Rep. Tom Suozzi (D-Glen Cove), U.S. Sens. Chuck Schumer (D-New York) and Kirsten Gillibrand (D-New York) and others blasted the decision in public statements. “President Trump’s decision to withdraw from the Paris Climate Agreement is a devastating failure of historic proportions,” Schumer said. “Future generations will look back on President Trump’s decision as one of the worst policy moves made in the 21st century because of the huge damage to our economy, our environment and our geopolitical standing. Pulling out of the Paris Agreement doesn’t put America first, it puts America last in recognizing science, in being a world leader and protecting our own shoreline, our economy and our planet.” New York State 4th District Assemblyman Steve Englebright (D-Setauket) expressed support for the newly minted climate alliance on Twitter, sharing the hashtag “#LeadNotLeave.” First Congressional District U.S. Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-Shirley) said in an emailed statement through a spokeswoman that he supported many of the goals of the Paris Agreement, but thought the U.S. “approached this entire agreement all wrong.” He criticized former President Barack Obama (D), who played a leadership role in establishing the Paris Agreement, for bypassing Congress in reaching the agreement and for what he viewed as outsized pledges made by the U.S. compared to oth-
er world powers in the agreement. “What we need to do moving forward should include continuing to take an international approach to protect clean air and clean water, and reduce emissions that are impacting our climate, but we must negotiate it correctly so that we aren’t over promising, under delivering and causing unnecessary harm,” he said. During Trump’s June 1 speech announcing the withdrawal, he sited a loss of American jobs in the coal industry and crippling regulations on the business world as the drivers behind his decision. U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Administrator Scott Pruitt, who was appointed by Trump, praised his decision. “This is a historic restoration of American Economic Independence — one that will benefit the working class, the working poor, and working people of all stripes,” he said. “With this action, you have declared that people are the rulers of this country once again.” Administrators from the New York District Office of the U.S. Small Business Administration, a government agency that offers support to small businesses, were not available to comment on Trump’s decision or the formation of the United States Climate Alliance, but a spokesperson for the department instead directed the request to answers U.S. SBA Administrator Linda McMahon gave to Yahoo Global News June 6. She agreed with Trump’s decision to leave the Paris Agreement, adding she believes this will result in more job opportunities for Americans. “I think [Trump] was making a statement that we’re going to look at what’s good for America first,” she said. “I do think climate change is real, and I do think that man has some contribution to climate change. As to the extent of the science, predictions as to what might happen 20, 30, 40 years from now, I’m not sure we have that totally decided, but I do respect the science behind a lot of it.”

Clockwise from left, Pete Theodorellis fires from the mound; the Commack team celebrates Jake Krzemienski’s three-run double; captains demetri Mesimeris, Pete Theodorellis and John Pohlman accept the runner-up plaque; and Tim McHugh drives the ball deep.
Commack falls to Massapequa in LIC title game Season comes to an end after Cougars grab first county title in 20 years By Bill landon Down three runs, Commack’s baseball team dug itself out of a hole in the bottom of the fifth inning to tie the game, 4-4, but Massapequa added four late runs to pull away with an 8-4 win for the Class AA Long Island championship title at St. Joseph’s College June 3. The road to the Suffolk title began on May 16, where the Cougars picked off Kings Park, Hauppauge a day later and battled Patchogue-Medford in the best of three series. From there, Commack got the better of West Islip, sweeping the series and with it picking up the program’s first Suffolk County crown in 20 years. The Cougars took a 15-3 record into Saturday’s game. After singles by senior Pete Theodorellis and junior James Cardinale in the bottom of the fifth inning, sophomore Tim McHugh drew the walk to load the bases. With two outs, it was Jake Krzemienski’s bat that made the difference, as the sophomore ripped a deep three-run, stand-up double to make it a new game. “Awesome season boys,” McHugh wrote on Twitter following the loss. “Good luck to all seniors in college. Happy to say I made another family.”
Massapequa 8 Commack 4
The Chiefs laid down a bunt to move senior Michael Cottone to second base, and classmate Luke O’Mahony drove him home to put his team back in front, 5-4. Theodorellis got into trouble on the mound and loaded the bases for the second time in the game. He paid the price when he walked in Massapequa’s sixth run, and the Chiefs plated in more runs before the inning was over. Massapequa retired all three Commack
batters in order in the bottom of the inning to end the game. “I’ve got a great group of kids who listened to everything I’d say and they gave it
their best effort every single day,” Commack head coach Bryan Bonin said. “Competing on every single pitch — they’re a good group of kids who have a never-quit attitude.”

Zeldin gives Trump a pass
File photo
Trump’s decision fails Americans, and the world Late last week President Donald Trump (R) announced his intention for the United States to withdraw from the Paris Agreement, an accord signed by 197 countries in 2016 to mitigate the global effects of climate change. The U.S. target was to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 26 to 28 percent below 2005 levels by 2025. We intensely disagree with Trump’s decision, a decision made by only two other countries in the world — even North Korea is on the right side of this. The U.S. was the second leading country in greenhouse gas emissions in 2015, behind only China, according to the World Resources Institute. Our nation emits more pollutants than the 28 countries making up the European Union, which is home to almost 200 million more people than America. Why is this bad? In simple terms, emitting greenhouse gases into the Earth’s atmosphere warms the Earth’s surface so, as our emissions continue to increase, so does our surface temperature. The two warmest years in the U.S. were 2012 and 2015, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, and the decade from 2006 to 2015 was the warmest on record. Aside from a warmer Earth, sea levels are also rising as a result of climate change. In a special issue earlier this year, we explored the many reasons why a warming planet spells out danger for Long Island. The first victims of climate change will undoubtedly be those living on shorelines, especially to the north, as water levels rise. The first early victims, though, will be those living in small, impoverished countries. Tuvalu, a cluster of nine islands in the South Pacific, has already seen a fifth of its population flee their homes, most to New Zealand, as their land continues to be swallowed by the ocean. Climate change refugees have barely any guidelines or funds to help them once they lose their homes. Trump suggested his decision stemmed from a desire to go back to promoting “clean coal” as a source of energy, as opposed to cleaner — in reality — 21st century options like wind and solar. With this decision, we’re not being international leaders, shaping a promising future for the next generation. Instead, we’re passing the buck. Trump said he plans to renegotiate U.S. involvement in the agreement to make a better deal. While we challenge him to keep his word, French President Emmanuel Macron said, “There is no plan B because there is no planet B.” New York state is one of 13 members of the United States Climate Alliance, an agreement between 12 states and Puerto Rico to uphold the tenants of the Paris Agreement despite the federal government’s decision. We commend New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) for his efforts to keep our state poised to push toward a sustainable future, along with other leaders across the country that have refused to accept Trump’s decision. Climate change will continue to affect us despite our president’s lack of support for combating the danger, and we cannot afford to follow in his footsteps.
Earlier this month President Donald Trump revealed highly classified information to Russian officials in an Oval Office meeting closed to the American press but open to a photographer from Tass, the Russian news agency. Not only did this compromise intelligence which had been gathered by a third party, Israel, this came one day after firing FBI director, James Comey, for continuing to investigate Russian interference in last November’s election. A week later our congressman, Rep. Lee Zeldin, weighed in, stating, “Until there’s any shred of evidence whatsoever that the president himself has done anything wrong . . . I’m not going to start playing along hysterically with people who have pledged to resist, persist, oppose, obstruct entirely.” Ironic he should criticize obstruction in defense of a president flagrantly obstructing justice by asking Comey to quash the investigation into Michael Flynn. Although Zeldin fails to identify who’s “hysterical”, probably the most hysterical people in America right now are Trump’s
own White House staffers alarmed by his conduct.Immediately after Trump’s meeting with the Russians, Thomas Bossert, assistant to the president for homeland security and counterterrorism, placed hurried calls to the directors of the CIA and NSA, the services most involved in the intelligence-sharing arrangement with Israel, to give them a heads-up. It’s no accident that virtually all the leaks to the press about Trump are from White House staffers troubled about Trump’s temperament and fitness for the presidency. Trump fires the head of the FBI, lies about the reason for it to the American people, leaks sensitive information to the Russians which is a crime for anyone but the president, jokes with the Russians in the Oval Office that Comey is “crazy” and a “nut job”, and blandly acknowledges that firing Comey had “taken off” the pressure on him. The Kremlin hierarchy must be laughing themselves silly. And in old news, Trump still refuses to release his tax returns. Why? Yet in spite of all this, Zeldin still insists Trump
has done nothing wrong. Zeldin certainly sang a very different tune last July, when he was baying for Hillary Clinton’s blood for having “grossly mishandled classified information”, as he put it, merely for using a private email server. It’s too bad Zeldin puts his own political career above his constitutional responsibility to serve as a check and balance on the president. Instead he attacks journalists for holding the president accountable, and votes in Congress to shield Trump from any inspection of his tax returns even in closed congressional committee. In his first term. Zeldin met with Oath Keepers, a right-wing fringe group fretting about Americans being disarmed by the government and herded into concentration camps. The reality is that if democracy withers in America it will be not with a bang but with a whimper, through the kind of corrupt authoritarianism brought to us by President Trump, with the complicity of Rep. Zeldin.

Promoting economic stimulus plan as pollution solution Your editorial policy repeats the county’s misinformation that we must protect our waters from nitrogen pollution by replacing our septic systems with these new advanced treatment systems. There is no doubt that nitrogen is a problem in some locations, but these complicated treatment systems in our front yards are not the answer. Studies have shown that nitrogen from acid rain falling directly on the bays and runoff from the land together with fertilizers are a major component of nitrogen pollution. These expensive septic systems (up to $20,000 installation and $600/yr operation and maintenance) will do nothing to reduce nitrogen from these sources. The county’s own website touts that these new systems are suitable for construction on small lots near wetland areas “with significant site constraints such as high ground-
water … in coastal areas” (www. ReclaimOurWater.info). Any additional construction in the watershed will increase nitrogen from runoff regardless of the type of septic system installed. The long-term solution is to limit population density and development in environmentally sensitive areas, not increase it. The fact that the environmental and editorial community has jumped on board shows what a great PR job the county has done in promoting an economic stimulus package as a pollution solution. Plans are already in the works to require these systems to be installed, not just in sensitive areas, but whenever a septic system has to be pumped or whenever a property is sold. The industry projects that thousands of jobs will be created with millions of dollars coming out of our pockets. This is the underlying reason for the
program — to help plug the $100 million plus hole in the county budget — at taxpayers’ expense. The grant program only pays about half of the installation cost with the owner having to shell out or take a loan for the additional cost estimated at up to $10,000, not including landscape and legal fees. The new Article 19 of the Sanitary Code also requires that the owners of the new system file deed restrictions against their property that require maintenance contracts be paid in perpetuity and subjects the owner to investigation and penalties for noncompliance. Anyone thinking of installing these systems should seriously consider the financial and legal ramifications and carefully read all the information on the website www.ReclaimOurWater.info.

Seeking shade and a book under a pecan tree
I
have hundreds of new friends I’ve never met, and a profound appreciation for the people who created them or shared their lives. I recently attended my first BookExpo at the Javits Center in New York City, where I was surrounded by booksellers, librarians, agents, book publishers and authors including Stephen King, James Patterson and John By Daniel Dunaief Grisham, with numerous budding luminaries in the mix. A highlight for me was a panel of children’s book authors, which included actress Isla Fisher, who has starred in movies including “Wedding Crashers” and “Definitely, Maybe.”
D. None of the above
While I was intrigued to see Ms. Fisher in person, the other authors owned the stage, as Fisher readily admitted that she wasn’t a writing peer to her fellow panelists. Jason Reynolds, an African-American writer for middle-grade and young adult novels, electrified the audience. He talked about how he used to visit his great Aunt Blanche in South Carolina, where the sun was so scorching it burned his neck. His aunt, who was 85, sat on her hot porch, smoking cigarettes and watching the children. Aunt Blanche planted a pecan tree — as he said, a “pea can” — when she was 4. The tree had become enormous by the time Reynolds was a child, providing shade for the younger crowd. Reynolds, a 2016 National Book Award Finalist for Young People’s Literature with “Ghost,” suggested that books offered the kind of shade he desperately needed, providing relief from the heat. Reynolds asked himself, “What if I get to be the pecan tree?”
Jennifer Weiner, meanwhile, has ventured from the world of adult fiction and “Good in Bed” to writing for a younger audience, which includes her recent book, “The Littlest Bigfoot.” Weiner said she does much of her writing in the equivalent of a large closet in her home, although she completed “half of a book waiting in a carpool line.” Dutch author Marieke Nijkamp shared some insights into her latest book “Before I Let Go,” which is about a girl named Corey who loses her best friend Kyra. Nijkamp, with fans waiting in a long line for the blue-haired author’s signature, said she “definitely goes for a walk right after I kill a character.” While circling the Javits Center exhibits, I bumped into Owen King. He is the son of acclaimed author Stephen King, and is promoting a book he wrote with his father called “Sleeping Beauties,” in which all the women but one in a small Appalachian town become wrapped in a cocoon when they

go to sleep. If someone awakens them, they become violent. That leaves the men without the civilizing and calming influence of women. It sounded to me like an adult version of William Golding’s classic “Lord of the Flies.” In describing the novel, Owen King said he enjoyed the time writing and editing the book with his father. He described how a King dinner time activity includes coming up with story ideas, many of which never see the light of day. I asked Owen, who was clad in an untucked plaid shirt and looks remarkably like his father, what caught his eye at the Expo. He highlighted a book by Steve Steinberg about a Yankees pitcher named Urban Shocker. King said he loved the name and found the story compelling, about a pitcher who went 18-6 in the Yankees’ famous 1927 season despite battling heart disease. I picked up a copy, which was autographed for my son, and I look forward to learning about Shocker’s world.
